I know *NOT* to mess with monsters. @tv101 🤣 You shouldn’t appease monsters or they win! The guitar gods walk with you and give you the confidence to defeat the demons. Strike a chord, kill t...

@clinton Great film and a stunning guitar very well built. Well done sir.

Hi James, Thanks for taking the time to do this. My gut reaction is that this is thicker than it needs to be but who am I to question the likes of Mr Gibson or Mr Yamaha! I will try a pressing at 5mm ...

@tv101 Hi TV, yes, that would be great as ti will be interesting to have a couple of dimensions to compare. PS I think I must have emailed a reply to the notification that you had posted a message a...

I'd do it now, but my digital calipers are out in my workshop, and it's wet and windy and dark outside now, and I'm pretty sure that the monsters come out when it gets dark, so I'm not going out there...

Beautiful, a lovely guitar.

@boo It's rather neat! A great way to try make your guitar a hit more versatile! Only thing I don't like a huge amount is two pickup selectors, because the 5 way on the preamp is there to either giv...

Sorry I meant blank is for shielding

@clinton Thanks for that! Though I do have a question, I forgot to mention I have a schaller hannes piezo bridge. I'm rather sure the red and black port is just for the piezo + & -, so it only lea...

@boo Yes it is cool, my last build had a piezo tune o matic and wired passive. Was not fully satisfied. Recently got a pre amp from tone monster. Solderless wiring harness. Had the same principle. Mad...

@clinton This is all really cool, I’d never heard of these kind of pickups before this conversation.

Hi Ok, I use tone monster harness that has the same principle of solderless wiring system. Keep in mind pick ups have different color coding based on the manafacturer. The yellow and red terminal ...

@clinton Thanks so much for the reply, I think I'm starting to make sense of this now. So you would wire it from the volume pots as oppose to from the pickup selector? What I'm stuck on is the preamp ...

Hi Ok, pick up hot to volume pot like normal whether you have tone pot connected with it or not. Outward wire hot on the middle terminal of the volume pot going to the solderless terminal ports of th...

I'm looking to get the flagship preamp, though I'm struggling how to wire it. @schwifty You lost me at “flagship preamp” I’m afraid. 🤣 Wiring/soldering etc is my worst skill in guitar buildi...

I made this a while ago @robin it works well and I agree with @darrenking that so long as the radius is slightly more acute than the fretboard, you don’t need to know the an exact radius. I just used ...

@boo I made this a while ago Thanks Boo, thats excellent. I'll be copying that soon. I was trying to use junk that I had lying around.
